Papercrafting Fun With All Around Creativity!


 Hello!  Welcome!  There is so much to be grateful for, including YOU, dear reader, friend, and customer! 💝

My Grateful Wreath is a happy reminder to reflect on all we have to be grateful for!  It was such a delight to create!  

 My 16-inch frame is laser cut plywood and part of the new All Around Creativity collection of kits available at PapercraftingWithGayle.ctmh.com.  
To give mine a bit of bling, I coated it with my Clear Shimmer Brush.  I love how it glistens in the light!  
The multitude of leaves included in the kits are oh, so easy to punch out.  I simply gave mine a bit of a fold, down the center to add dimension, and then using my Gold Shimmer Brush, lightly went over vein lines.  This simple act adds dimension and a subtle sparkle.  
Prior to removing my flowers from their carrier sheet, I lightly sponged the layers of a couple of the flowers with Mint Ink, and others with Ballerina Ink.  They are a fresh White upon arrival, and are beautiful as is!  Liquid Glass is my go-to adhesive for assembling flowers and wreaths!  

 After my flowers were assembled, I added Julep  and Silver Glitter Gems, along with a mix of Julep and Silver Sequins.  💝

Oh, my goodness!  This paper bow is so easy and fun to create!  It adds such a delightful finishing touch to my wreath! 💝

 The All Around Creativity Kit now comes in four additional versions, along with my Grateful Wreath.  They include, Be Kind, Stay Awhile, Create and just released, Love.  💖
      

 Each kit includes--your selected sentiment/frame

 - Punch out leaves, flowers, and bow
- 4 Background paper options

 When creating your wreath, you will need a strong adhesive!  I highly recommend Liquid Glass.  

 I do hope you will join me in creating one or more of these beautiful wreaths for your own home/office/classroom decor, or to give as a gift!  It will surely be enjoyed for years to come!  
Thank you so much for visiting!  YOU are appreciated!  

I enjoy hearing from you and appreciate your business and support.  I look forward to helping you as you travel along life's journey celebrating relationships with all of YOUR papercrafting and memory keeping needs.  💖

Have a wonderful day!

Happy Papercrafting,

Woo Hoo!  So honored and excited that my Grateful Wreath was FEATURED over at Wine'd Down Wednesday, found at http://ourthreepeas.com/wined-down-wednesday-329/💝 and https://www.create-with-joy.com/2020/02/inspire-me-monday-week-420.html  THANK YOU SO MUCH!  Gayle

    Very pretty! It's nice that no cutting machine is required to make the flowers. I'm visiting from Saturday Sparks.

      Thank you, Allyson! Yes! I love my Cricut, but there is certainly something to be said for a kit that just needs adhesive! Or, even just a few additional products to alter to suit your fancy. Have a wonderful day!
